What does your baby wear to bed?

As a newborn, my lo slept in a long-sleeve onesie and a swaddle sleep sack, but since it's gotten colder and he's outgrown his sleep sack, I've been putting him in sleepers, but I feel like he needs the swaddle, and it seems like that would be too hot in a sleeper inside a sleep sack.

What do your little ones sleep in? In particular, if you use a sleep sack, what do they wear?

A cotton sleeper, sometimes with socks on too. She sleeps in her swing (the only place she will sleep for longer than 30 minutes...reflux makes it uncomfortable for her to sleep on her back), and I tuck a blanket around her midsection (under the swing tray) and around her feet. We keep the house pretty warm, and she is always plenty warm when I pick her up.

Cotton sleeper with a swaddleme overtop. Our room is coldish despite our heat being set to 72, and I find that she often has cold hands (which midwife said is fine as long as the back of her neck is still warm).

My son has been sleeping in one-piece sleepers with a swaddler over, every night since birth. On the colder nights his sleeper has been fleece, with a cotton swaddle over it. I have a fleece swaddle too, but haven't yet used it. I don't keep our bedroom too heated, just normally cool, maybe 67-68 and feel like this layering is fine. But every kid is different so if you feel yours needs to wear less under a swaddle then that makes sense too. You want them to feel warm but not sweating, right? :)

Lol mine sleeps in just a diaper or a short sleeves onesie. We bed share and our bedroom gets really warm bc we live in a townhouse, heat rises. I put him in a sleeper once and woke up to him covered in sweat

Usually a sleeper or sleep gown inside the SwaddleMe. If she cosleeps she's usually in her sleeper or gown with a blanket wrapped around her (kinda like being swaddled from the chest down but arms are free).
